Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign fibro-osseous bone disease of unknown etiology and uncertain pathogenesis. When bone maturation is completed, indicating the occurence of stabilization is a strong evidence of mechanism. The lesion frequently affects the craniofacial skeleton. The maxilla is affected twice comparing mandible and occurs more frequently in the posterior area. In this case, a 16 year-old female patient is presented who was diagnosed as having maxillofacial fibrous dysplasia. *Corresponding author: Gözde Canıtezer, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Ondokuz Mayıs University, 55139 Kurupelit, Samsun, Turkey, Tel: +90 362 3121919-3012, +90 505 8659063; Fax: +90 362 4576032; E-mail: [email protected] Received October 02, 2013; Accepted November 04, 2013; Published November 06, 2013 Citation: Canıtezer G, Gunduz K, Ozden B, Kose HI (2013) Monostotic Fibrous Dysplasia: A Case Report.

Monostotic fibrous dysplasia (a case report).
Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibro-osseous lesion of the bone that commonly affects the jaws with a higher prevalence in the maxilla than the mandible. It is a lesion of unknown etiology, uncertain pathogenesis, and diverse histopathology. Fibrous dysplasia can involve multiple bones (polyostotic) or a single bone (monostotic). It represents about 2 to 5% of all bone tumors and over 7% of all ...
متن کاملFibrous dysplasia of the inferior turbinate.
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a benign skeletal disorder in which abnormally overgrowing bony lesion replaces normal bone. FD can affect one bone (monostotic form) or multiple bones (polyostotic form). The craniofacial bones are involved in about 10% of subjects with monostotic FD. However, its occurrence in the sinonasal tract is very rare. We report a case of monostotic FD developed only in the i...
متن کاملFibrous Dysplasia in the Epiphysis of the Distal Femur
Fibrous dysplasia is a common benign skeletal lesion that may involve a single bone or multiple bones. Although fibrous dysplasia can affect any bone, monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the long bone typically occurs in the diaphysis or metaphysis. We report a very rare case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia involving the epiphysis of the distal femur in a young man.

Fibrous dysplasia is a benign fibroosseous lesion characterised by the replacement of normal bone by excessive proliferation of cellular fibrous connective tissue which is slowly replaced by bone, osteoid, or cementum-like material. It causes bone pain, deformities, and pathological fractures. Fibrous dysplasia (FD) is a sporadic benign skeletal disorder that can affect one bone (monostotic for...

Background: Although pituitary adenomas have been described in association with polyostotic fibrous dysplasia in McCune-Albright Syndrome, no such relationship has been described with monostotic fibrous dysplasia. The authors describe a case of monostotic fibrous dysplasia of the sphenoid bone and concomitant pituitary adenoma in a 25-year-old male. To the authors’ knowledge this is the first s...
